[cia-drugs] Fun truths

2008-08-18 Thread Mary Hartman
 
 
Everyone
concentrates on the problems we're having in this country lately:
illegal immigration, hurricane recovery, alligators attacking people in
Florida ...  



Not me. I concentrate on solutions for the problems. It's a win-win situation. 

+ Dig a moat the length of the Mexican border. 

+ Send the dirt to New Orleans to raise the level of the levies. 

+ Put the Florida alligators in the moat along the Mexican border. 

Any other problems you would like for me to solve today ?  Yes! 

Think about this one: 

1. Cows 
2..The Constitution 
3. The Ten Commandments   



C O W S   

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that during the mad
cow epidemic our government could track a single cow, born in   Canada   almost 
three years ago, right to the stall where she slept in the
state of Washington? And, they tracked her calves to their stalls. But
they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around
our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.   



T H EC O N S T I T U T I O N   

They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq    Why don't 
we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of
really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not
using it anymore.   



T H E   1 0C O M M A N D M E N T S   

The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse 
is this: 
You cannot post 'Thou Shalt Not Steal,' 'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery,' and 
'Thou Shall Not Lie' in a
building full of lawyers, judges and politicians...It creates a hostile work 
environment.

US spying guidelines
Article By:
Sat, 16 Aug 2008 09:04

The administration of President George W. Bush has drafted a set of
guidelines for state and local police agencies that would make it
easier to collect intelligence on ordinary citizens, The Washington
Post reported Saturday.

The newspaper said the proposal, prepared by the US Justice
Department, allows law enforcement agencies to launch a criminal
intelligence investigation based on the suspicion that a person or a
group is engaged in terrorism or providing material support to  
terrorists.


According to the report, local police would share results of their
investigations with the federal government.

Under the proposal, intelligence information could be obtained from
public records, the Internet, law enforcement databases and
confidential and undercover sources.

The rules would apply to the nation's 18 000 state and local police
agencies that would receive about $1.6-billion a year to help cover
the costs of their implementation.

The CIA is training landscapers, poolmen, and interior designers

August 15, 2008
by Tim Swanson

The US military recently accused Iran of training death squads whose
primary goal is carrying out assassinations.  The information is being
made public to supposedly pressure Iranian leadership into halting
these operations.

So if Iranian assassins are called death squads what are similarly
trained operatives from the CIA or Army called?

Perhaps the euphemisms that Pentagon officials use are: customer
service representatives, safety patrol officers, personal assistants,
and make-over specialists.

While the actions of both sides are essentially premeditated murder,
the CIA and Army special forces should also come clean about their
decades old operations involving the execution of foreign nationals.
Come clean on operations in Guatemala, El Salvador, Vietnam, and even
Iran itself.

Contemporaneously, after deafening calls to reinstate the official
sanctioning of assassinations, the legacy of director Richard Helms
continues unabated,as the Pentagon continues to fund and operate the
notorious School of the Americas at Fort Bragg which has trained
hundreds of foreign nationals with assassination tactics.

Furthermore, despite being banned in the 1970s — after revelations
disclosed by the Church and Pike committees — with the assistance of
Israeli Defense Forces, the US Army has been actively training
hunter-killer squads in Iraq under a program called Operation Gray  
Fox.


And the latest act of bellicosity: this hypocritical condemnation
comes a month after an exposé showed that last year, Congress
appropriated $400 million for the CIA to conduct clandestine
operations in Iran.

While the exact nature of the operations are undisclosed, it is
difficult to fathom that the funds are financing more plumbers,
carpenters, and electricians in a covert attempt to build new homes
and infrastructure for local residents.

[cia-drugs] 40 Infallible Reasons Why You Should Never Vaccinate Infants

2008-08-18 Thread Scott Munson

40 Infallible Reasons Why You Should Never Vaccinate Infants.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

40 Reasons Why You Should Never Vaccinate Infants:
- Jagannath Chatterjee.(Fighting Vaccines Since 1985).


There is no scientific study to determine whether vaccines have really  
prevented diseases. Rather disease graphs show vaccines have been  
introduced at the fag end of epidemics when the disease was already in  
its last stages. In case of Small Pox the vaccine actually caused a  
great spurt in the incidence of disease killing thousands before  
public outcry led to its withdrawal.
There are no long-term studies on vaccine safety. Very short-term  
unscientific tests are carried out where the vaccinated subjects are  
checked against another group who are given another vaccine.  
Technically the tests should be carried out against a non-vaccinated  
group. No one really knows what protocols are followed at such  
industry-sponsored trials.
There has never been any attempt to compare a vaccinated population  
against a non vaccinated population to know what vaccines are doing to  
the children and the society.
The child receives not one but many vaccines. There are no tests to  
determine the effects of multiple vaccines.
There is no scientific basis for vaccinating infants. As per senior  
doctors quoted by the Times of India, Children suffer from less than  
2% of vaccine preventable illnesses but 100% of the vaccines are  
targeted towards them. The vaccine pioneers who have recommended  
abundant caution before vaccinating the population have never  
advocated Mass vaccinations.
Children are vaccinated simply because parents can be frightened to  
forcefully vaccinate their children. Vaccinating infants is the most  
profitable business both for the manufacturers as well as the doctors.
The Government of India has come out with a quarter page advertisement  
in The Hindu warning parents not to vaccinate beyond the Government  
approved vaccines. Parents have been advised against vaccinating in  
private clinics and hospitals.
The Orissa Chapter of the Indian Association of Pediatricians has  
admitted in a letter to the CM, Orissa, that private clinics and  
hospitals are ill equipped to store vaccines and warned parents not to  
vaccinate upon the advise of private practitioners and hospitals.

ALL THE VACCINE INGREDIENTS ARE EXTREMELY TOXIC IN NATURE.
Vaccines contain heavy metals, cancer causing substances, toxic  
chemicals, live and genetically modified viruses, contaminated serum  
containing animal viruses and foreign genetic material, extremely  
toxic decontaminants and adjuvants, untested antibiotics, none of  
which can be injected without causing any harm.
The mercury, aluminum and live viruses in vaccines is behind the huge  
epidemic of autism (1 in 10 worldwide as per doctors in the USA), a  
fact that has been admitted by the US Vaccine Court.
The CDC of USA, the vaccine watchdog, has publicly admitted that its  
much-publicized 2003 study denying any link between vaccines and  
autism, is flawed. The Chief of CDC Dr Gerberding has confessed to the  
media (CNN) that vaccines can cause autism like symptoms. The Autism  
epidemic is found only in those countries that have allowed mass  
vaccinations.
In the year 1999, the US Government instructed vaccine manufacturers  
to remove mercury from vaccines with immediate effect. But mercury  
still remains a part of many vaccines. The vaccines with mercury were  
never recalled and were given to children up to the year 2006.  
Mercury free vaccines contain 0.05mcg of mercury, enough to  
permanently damage a infant.
IN INDIA NO ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO ENSURE THAT MERCURY AND OTHER  
HEAVY METALS ARE REMOVED FROM VACCINES SIMPLY BECAUSE IT WOULD MAKE  
VACCINES COSTLIER.
In a reply to then President Sri Abdul Kalam, the Health Ministry  
informed, mercury is required to make the vaccines safe. To the  
authors query that what are these vaccines that it requires the  
second most dangerous neurotoxin, mercury, to make them safe?, there  
was no reply.
Mercury used in vaccines is second in toxicity only to the radioactive  
substance, Uranium. It is a neurotoxin that can damage the entire  
nervous system of the infant in no time.
Mercury accumulates in fat. The brain being made entirely of fat  
cells, most of the mercury accumulates there giving rise to the  
peculiar symptoms of the autistic children.
The mercury used in vaccines is ethyl mercury. According to Indian  
doctors this is 1000 times more toxic than the usual methyl mercury.
The aluminum present in vaccines makes the mercury, in any form, 100  
times more toxic.
As per an independent study aluminum and formaldehyde present in  
vaccines can increase the toxicity of mercury, in any form, by 1000  
times.
As per a Tehelka article on Autism, children are receiving 250 times  
more mercury through vaccines than they can possibly tolerate. The  
same article states that if one considers the WHO

Wag the Dog: How to Conceal Massive Economic Collapse

by Ellen Brown


Global Research, August 14, 2008
webofdebt.com



I’m in show business, why come to me?

War is show business, that’s why we’re here.
– Wag the Dog (1997 film)




Last week, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac had just announced record  
losses, and so had most reporting corporations. Unemployment was  
mounting, the foreclosure crisis was deepening, state budgets were in  
shambles, and massive bailouts were everywhere. Investors had every  
reason to expect the dollar and the stock market to plummet, and gold  
and oil to shoot up. Strangely, the Dow Jones Industrial Average  
gained 300 points, the dollar strengthened, and gold and oil were  
crushed. What happened?


It hardly took psychic powers to see that the Plunge Protection Team  
had come to the rescue. Formally known as the President’s Working  
Group on Financial Markets, the PPT was once concealed and its very  
existence denied as if it were a matter of strict national security.  
But the PPT has now come out of the closet. What was once a legally  
questionable manipulator of markets has become a sanctioned  
stabilizer and protector of markets. The new tone was set in January  
2008, when global markets took their worst tumble since September 11,  
2001. Senator Hillary Clinton said in a statement reported by the  
State News Service:


I think it’s imperative that the following step be taken. The  
President should have already and should do so very quickly, convene  
the President’s Working Group on Financial Markets. That’s something  
that he can ask the Secretary of the Treasury to do. . . . This has to  
be coordinated across markets with the regulators here and obviously  
with regulators and central banks around the world.1


The mystery over what was going on with the dollar the first week in  
August was solved by James Turk, founder of GoldMoney, who wrote on  
August 7:


[T]he banking problems in the United States continue to mount, while  
the federal government’s deficit continues to soar out of  
control. . . . So what happened to cause the dollar to rally over the  
past three weeks? In a word, intervention. Central banks have propped  
up the dollar, and here’s the proof.


When central banks intervene in the currency markets, they exchange  
their currency for dollars. Central banks then use the dollars they  
acquire to buy US government debt instruments so that they can earn  
interest on their money. The debt instruments central banks acquire  
are held in custody for them at the Federal Reserve, which reports  
this amount weekly.


On July 16, 2008 . . . , the Federal Reserve reported holding $2,349  
billion of US government paper in custody for central banks. In its  
report released today, this amount had grown over the past three weeks  
to $2,401 billion, a 38.4% annual rate of growth. . . . So central  
banks were accumulating dollars over the past three weeks at a rate  
far above what one would expect as a result of the US trade deficit.  
The logical conclusion is that they were intervening in currency  
markets. They were buying dollars for the purpose of propping it up,  
to keep the dollar from falling off the edge of the cliff and doing so  
ignited a short covering rally, which is not too difficult to do given  
the leverage employed in the markets these days by hedge funds and  
others.2


Just as central banks manipulate currencies in concert, so gold can be  
manipulated by massive selling of central bank reserves. Oil and any  
other market can be manipulated as well. But markets can be  
manipulated by only so much and for only so long without fixing the  
underlying problem. There is more bad news coming down the pike, news  
of such magnitude that no amount of ordinary manipulation is liable to  
conceal it.


For one thing, roughly $400 billion in ARMs (adjustable rate  
mortgages) have or will reset between March and October of this year.  
Assuming 3 to 6 months for strapped debtors to actually hit the wall  
with their payments, a huge wave of defaults is about to strike,  
continuing through March 2009 – just in time for the next huge wave of  
resets, in option ARMs.3 Option ARMs are loans with the option to pay  
even less than just the interest on the loan monthly, increasing the  
loan balance until the loan reaches a certain amount (typically 110%  
to 125% of the original loan balance), when it resets. The $800  
billion credit line recently opened to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac may  
be not only tapped but tapped out, at taxpayer expense. The underlying  
problem is little discussed but impossible to repair – a one  
quadrillion dollar derivatives scheme that is now imploding. Banks  
everywhere are facing massive writeoffs, putting the whole banking  
system on the brink

Naomi Klein and Christian Parenti on How Beijing Olympics Highlight
Globalization of Police State, Inequality
The equipment and integrated security systems used to detain Olympic
protesters will remain long after the Olympics, to be used, many
fear, on China's own population. And some of the biggest
beneficiaries of this surveillance boom are US hedge funds and
corporations, including Cisco, General Electric and Google. We speak
to journalists Naomi Klein and Christian Parenti, both of whom have
recently reported from China. [includes rush transcript]


More…


Guests:

Naomi Klein, award-winning journalist and bestselling author. Her
most recent book is The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster
Capitalism. Her latest articles are about surveillance in China.


JUAN GONZALEZ: China deported five international activists today for
unfurling a Free Tibet banner over the top of an Olympic Games
billboard. It's the latest incident in what has become an almost
daily crackdown on both domestic and international protesters who
have had to contend with a brand new surveillance system that China
set up ahead of the games. This includes 300,000 security cameras and
an estimated 100,000 security officers on duty in Beijing.


But it's not just Beijing that's gotten a security upgrade. There are
now over 600 safe cities in China that have received new
surveillance gear. The equipment and integrated security systems will
remain long after the Olympics, to be used, many fear, on China's own
population. The domestic surveillance market in China is expected to
reach $33 billion next year. And some of the biggest beneficiaries of
this boom are US hedge funds and corporations, such as Cisco, General
Electric and Google.


AMY GOODMAN: Award-winning journalist and bestselling author Naomi
Klein calls this McCommunism. Her latest article published in the
Huffington Post is called The Olympics: Unveiling Police State 2.0.
Naomi Klein is author of The Shock Doctrine. She joins us on the
phone from Canada.


We're also joined in our firehouse studio by investigative journalist
and author Christian Parenti, who's also just back from China. His
latest piece for The Nation magazine is called Class Struggle in the
New China.


We welcome you both to Democracy Now! Naomi Klein, let's begin with
you. Lay out what you also called in Rolling Stone the all-seeing
eye.


NAOMI KLEIN: Well, there's an incredible operation going on in China
to use the latest, what's now called homeland security technology—
networked surveillance cameras, biometric identification cards,
facial recognition software—networking all of these cameras and
running the software through it as a way to control an increasingly
rebellious population. There's an incredible statistic from 2005 that
there were 87,000 mass incidents, which means protests and riots,
across the country.


So it is already being used as a way to control the population and
also to keep an eye on what in China is called the floating
population, the migrant population, who are displaced by mega
projects, who travel to cities like Beijing and Guangzhou and
Shenzhen looking for work. This is a mobile population that is right
now 130 million people. And this technology is used to keep track of
those people, because in a sort of Maoist time in China, you had—
where people stayed in their communities, you had networks of control
and surveillance that were really about people snitching on their
neighbors. When people are moving across long distances, the
technology is replacing that. So Police State 2.0 is really about
upgrading the surveillance system, with the help, as you said
earlier, of US companies like Cisco, General Electric, who have been
providing these technologies.


JUAN GONZALEZ: Your article talks about—calls it the Golden Shield,
as the Chinese refer to it, and you focus especially on the city of
Shenzhen, in terms of the enormous reach of this. I was struck that
you mentioned, for instance, that every internet cafe in China has
surveillance cameras that are hooked up to local police stations so
that they can keep an eye on who is using the internet cafes?


NAOMI KLEIN: Yeah, and the internet cafes are—you know, they're
really like internet bowling alleys. They're huge. An average-size
internet cafe has 600 terminals. And there are dozens of cameras in
the—not just obviously the cameras on the computers, but surveillance
cameras. And this is a huge market. You mentioned that it's worth $33
billion a year now. It's actually—that's even increased since I wrote
that article. The latest estimate is that it's going to be worth $43
billion, and—a year within two years.


And the reason why this is such a fast-growing market is that it's
not just that the internet cafes are installing these cameras; it's
that it's a law now in

Take a close look at the manner in which WTC 7 collapses straight  
down. For the building to collapse in this fashion, all of the load  
bearing supports would have had to fail at exactly the same time.


The claim that the collapse was the result of a fire requires the fire  
be equally distributed throughout the entire floor of the building,  
providing equal heat for an equal amount of time, so that all the load  
bearings members would fail at the exact same moment.

Do you find this plausible?

“Amazing, incredible pick your word. For the third time today, it’s  
reminiscent of those pictures we’ve all seen too much on television  
before, where a building was deliberately destroyed by well placed  
dynamite to knock it down.”



CBS News anchor Dan Rather commenting on the collapse of Building 7 -  
September 11, 2001 at approx 5:30pm EST.



The stability of the above video indicates the camera is directly  
connected to the ground via a tripod. The video enlargement on the  
right reveals a camera wobble when part of WTC 7's roof collapses, the  
camera then steadies, and roughly 4 seconds later the building comes  
down.


An explosive detonation in the basement of WTC 7 would cause a ground  
shake, and this would explain the camera wobble seen during the  
rooftop collapse. A ground shake also preceded the collapse of WTC 1.

If WTC 7 spontaneously collapsed then how did so many people catch its  
demise?

WTC 7 collapsed in roughly 7 seconds - that's freefall.

Are we to believe that diesel fires miraculously transformed the  
building's support columns from steel into jelly at 5:20 p.m. on 9/11?  
That's the only way WTC 7 could have collapsed into its footprint at  
this speed without explosives.

MORE TOPPLED BUILDINGS

The photos below are of buildings which collapsed during an  
earthquake. They show the typical result that occurs when a single  
load bearing member fails, resulting in the remains of the building  
tipping over and down onto the initiating point.








For a building to collapse into its own footprint, as WTC 7 did, ALL  
the load bearing members must fail at the exact same moment. This is  
achieved in controlled demolitions.



Larry Silverstein, the controller of the destroyed WTC complex, stated  
in a PBS documentary that he and the FDNY decided jointly to demolish  
WTC 7 late in the afternoon of September 11, 2001.



The above demonstrates that WTC 7 was indeed demolished, so why did  
FEMA spend many hoursdreaming up a report which claims the building  
collapsed through fire?

Operation Sentinel, a new program unveiled by the NYPD and Department  
of Homeland Security, would encircle Man- hattan with thousands of  
surveillance cameras that photo- graph every car or truck entering   
exiting the city across its network of bridges and tunnels.


Information captured by this intrusive project would be stored in a  
huge database for an undisclosed period of time.


Additionally, a network of sensors installed at toll plazas would  
allegedly be able to capable detect radi- ological materials that  
could be used in potential terror plots, the New York Times reports.


However, the New York Civil Liberties Union has de- nounced the  
proposal as an attack on New Yorkers
right to privacy. NYCLU Director Donna Lieberman lambasted this  
outrageous proposal saying,


The NYPD's latest plan to track and monitor the move- ments of  
millions of law-abiding people is an assault on

this country's historical respect for the right to privacy
 the freedom to be left alone. That this is happening without public  
debate, and that elected officials have

had no opportunity to study this program is even more alarming.
 (NYCLU: NYPD Plan to Track Millions of Law-Abiding People is an  
Assault on Privacy Rights, New York Civil Liberties Union, August 12,  
2008)
Last month I reported on a high-tech surveillance system under  
development by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)  
called Combat Zones That See (CTS).


The 2003 program was predicated on the notion that once thousands of  
digital CCTV networks were installed across occupied or homeland  
cities, CTS would provide occ- upying troops-or police-with motion- 
pattern analysis

across whole city scales.

Based on complex algorithms linked to the numeric rec- ognition of  
license plate numbers and scanned-in human profiles, CTS would furnish  
troops-or cops-real-time, situational awareness of the battlespace.


Despite repeated attempts by NYCLU to obtain information on Operation  
Sentinel, NYPD and DHS have refused to provide any information about  
their mega-surveillance system. While all traces of CTS disappeared  
from DARPA's website, portions of the program have resurfaced with a  
vengeance, courtesy of the NYPD and DHS.


According to New York Times reporter Al Baker,

Data on each vehicle-its time-stamped image, license
plate imprint and radiological signature- would be sent
to a command center in Manhattan, where it would be indexed  stored  
for at least a month as part of broad security plan that emphasizes  
protecting the city's

financial district, spokesman Paul Browne, said.
If it were not linked to a suspicious vehicle or a law enforcement  
investigation, it would be eliminated, he said.


(City Would Photograph Every Vehicle Entering Manhattan and Sniff Out  
Radiation, The New York Times, August 12, 2008)


While preventing terrorists from detonating a radiological dirty bomb  
or a nuclear device in Manhattan--or anywhere else for that matter-


is certainly a salutary government function, the misuse of such a  
system for illegal surveillance of the citizenry cannot be ruled out  
in advance nor dismissed out of hand as mere paranoia.


In addition to civil liberties concerns--no small matter after all,  
given the repressive nature of NYPD and DHS-Oper- ation Sentinel's  
grandiose scheme bank on technological systems which do not exist.


The Times dryly notes, the proposed plan relies on integrating layers  
of technologies, some that are still being perfected. In other words,  
the program is rife with potential abuse by enterprising security  
contractors, many with documented histories of promising much,  
delivering little and with substantial cost overruns borne by the  
public.


The department currently deploys portable radiation vehicles known as  
TRACS, or Tactical Radiation Acquisition  Characterization System,  
which the

Times claims can detect radiological agents such
as cesium and cobalt, and differentiate between dangerous ones and  
ones used in products like

smoke detectors or medical devices.

However, as I reported in June, another system under development, the  
Advanced Spectroscopic Portal or ASP, allegedly a more advanced  
system than those currently used, failed, as do today's systems, to  
differentiate between the components of a radiological dirty bomb and  
natural radiation emitters such as kitty litter, ceramics and bananas!


As I noted, the ASP program is already tens of millions of dollars  
above the original estimate provided by Raytheon, other contractors  
and DHS.


Why therefore, would any sane person believe that the system currently  
under consideration would be anymore functional or cost effective?  
Unless that is, Operation Sentinel's real purpose is to enhance an  
already-formidable surveillance state.

WTC 7's OEM Bunker Unmanned on 9/11
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
http://drkprnts.wordpress.com/2008/08/16/%E2%80%9Cwtc-7%E2%80%99s-oem-bunker-unmanned-on-911%E2%80%9D

excerpt:  Dark Origins
The completion of Mayor Giuliani’s OEM bunker in 1999, just a year and  
a half before 9/11, seems like uncanny timing in retrospect. The  
facility had its own air and water supply, emergency generators and  
was reportedly reinforced with blast resistant glass and other  
features designed to protect personnel who were to take charge should  
a catastrophic emergency arise


But controversy dogged the new facility from the start. A New York  
Daily News article described the bunker as “the first-ever aerie-style  
bunker,” the vast majority (or, according to the Daily News, all) of  
similar facilities in the past having been built underground and well  
removed from potential high-risk areas. An emergency command retreat  
located high in a building would be vulnerable to a host of dangers  
that an underground facility would be immune to


But questions about the wisdom of locating such a facility in the very  
midst of the number one terrorist target in the western hemisphere  
created the most controversy, especially when the WTC had already been  
attacked once in 1993. Having a large, well staffed, high-tech  
emergency command post destroyed by the very catastrophe it was  
designed to cope with (just as WTC 7 and the OEMEOC were on 9/11)  
would be inconvenient to say the least


As if all this weren’t enough, several bizarre directives originating  
within the OEM have also fueled suspicion and attracted attention from  
rescue workers and 9/11 skeptics alike. The order to evacuate Building  
7 and the area around the base of the Twin Towers because of an  
unconfirmed and ultimately false report that a possible third plane  
might be bearing down on the WTC complex allegedly originated with the  
Secret Service, but it was certainly disseminated by the OEM.


Oddly, the OEM ordered a similar evacuation of the Twin Towers at  
about the same time (approx. 9:30 AM) citing their certainty that the  
Twin Towers were about to collapse. In a world that has never seen the  
collapse of steel framed buildings before, this order was met with  
disbelief, especially from firefighters. But, later in the day, the  
OEM ordered the evacuation of the area around WTC 7 for much the same  
reason—OEM clairvoyance had somehow determined that Building 7 would  
be the third high-rise that day (and in history) to collapse due to fire


These and other facts about the OEM bunker have raised enough  
suspicion among 9/11 skeptics in the years since the attacks, but the  
truly bizarre and relatively recent revelation that, after all the  
controversy and expense, after all the years of doubt and speculation,  
the facility was apparently shut down on, of all days, September  
11th2001, is certainly the most shocking.

[cia-drugs] Laser Weapons Plausible Deniability

2008-08-18 Thread Scott Munson

Laser Weapons 'Plausible Deniability'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
http://revisionistreview.blogspot.com/2008/08/us-boasts-of-laser-weapons-plausible.html

An airborne laser weapon dubbed the long-range blowtorch has the  
added benefit that the US could convincingly deny any involvement with  
the destruction it causes, say senior officials of the US Air Force  
(USAF).


The Advanced Tactical Laser (ATL) is to be mounted on a Hercules  
military transport plane. Boeing announced the first test firing of  
the laser, from a plane on the ground, earlier this summer.


Cynthia Kaiser, chief engineer of the US Air Force Research  
Laboratory's Directed Energy Directorate, used the phrase plausible  
deniability to describe the weapon's benefits in a briefing  
(powerpoint format) on laser weapons to the New Mexico Optics Industry  
Association in June.


Plausibly deniable

John Corley, director of USAF's Capabilities Integration Directorate,  
used the same phrase to describe the weapon's benefits at an Air  
Armament Symposium in Florida in October 2007 (see page 15, pdf format).


As the term suggests, plausible deniability is used to describe  
situations where those responsible for an event could plausibly claim  
to have had no involvement in it.


Corley and Kaiser did not respond to requests from New Scientist to  
expand on their comments. But John Pike, analyst with defence think- 
tank Global Security, based in Virginia, says the implications are  
clear.


The target would never know what hit them, says Pike. Further,  
there would be no munition fragments that could be used to identify  
the source of the strike.


Silent strike

A laser beam is silent and invisible. An ATL can deliver the heat of a  
blowtorch with a range of 20 kilometres, depending on conditions. That  
range is great enough that the aircraft carrying it might not be seen,  
especially at night.


With no previous examples for comparison, it may be difficult to  
discern whether damage to a vehicle or person was the result of a  
laser strike.


The 5.5-tonne ATL combines chlorine and hydrogen peroxide molecules to  
release energy, which is used in turn to stimulate iodine into  
releasing intense infra-red light.


The US uses Hercules aircraft for accurate cannon strikes on moving  
vehicles. The ATL is touted as bringing a new level of accuracy to  
such attacks, for example being able to pinpoint a vehicle's tyres to  
disable it safely.


A second, larger version of the laser is also nearing initial testing.  
The much larger Airborne Laser is intended for missile defence and  
will be carried by a Boeing 747.

In China, Looks Are Everything

New America Media, News Analysis, Jun Wang , Posted: Aug 15, 2008

Editor's Note: The controversy over little Miaoke Lin lip-synching  
during the Olympic opening ceremony has split the Chinese blogosphere  
and shocked the West. Jun Wang is a Los Angeles-based reporter for New  
America Media.


In China, everything has to look perfectly good, especially if it's  
related to the Beijing Olympics. The opening ceremony did look  
magnificently grand. However, it has set off serious arguments around  
the world.


Everyone knows now that Miaoke Lin, the nine-year-old girl who  
appeared to be singing the Hymn to the Motherland in the Olympics  
opening ceremony, was not the singer at all. The voice belonged to  
Peiyi Yang, a seven-year-old girl, who sang from backstage.


Video: Miaoke Lin at the opening ceremony

Download video!

The switch was revealed by Qigang Chen, music director of the Olympics  
opening ceremony, days after the event. He said directors didn't let  
Yang perform on the stage because they were concerned about her  
appearance. This is a matter of national interest. The girl must look  
good and perform good, Chen said.


The remark provoked many Chinese to post comments on the Internet.  
Wrote one: Why not put Huan Liu, China's top singer without a popular  
face, singing behind the stage and bring some handsome face to move  
his mouth beside Sarah Brightman on the stage to boost China's  
national interest?


Xi Lin, a famous Chinese composer said that for him, fake-singing is  
not a problem at all. But Chen's explanation makes him angry. Lin said  
he doesn't see much difference between the two girls in terms of  
appealing faces. But he believes the national image of China must be  
incredibly easy to shake if it's based on a performer's looks.


The Chinese are split over the two-girl issue.

Supporters of the opening director Yimou Zhang say all the  
performances at the opening were teamwork. Nobody thinks Ning Li, the  
legendary gymnast, actually flew around the bird-nest stadium to light  
the Olympic torch all by himself. It's very clear that there are tons  
of people working unseen behind him. Nobody asks to list all their  
names after Li.


Pretty Corn argued back on the same website: I don't oppose fake  
singing or so-called cooperation, but Yang didn't get her credit.


The playbill handed out at the opening ceremony is criticized as  
misleading. It shows Actress A: Peiyi Yang, Actress B: Miaoke Lin.  
Translated, that would indicate that Lin would be Yang's substitute if  
Yang can't make the show. A post by ysy ysy asks Why not put  
singer: Peiyi Yang, performer Miaoke Lin? Why (didn't anyone) bring  
this up in the press conference immediately after the opening ceremony?


Giving credit might not be a big problem in China, but most people, on  
both sides of the issue, worry about what effect all this will have on  
the little girls, especially on Peiyi Yang. Her appearance has been  
officially evaluated as negatively affecting China's national image.


The girls' experience has no doubt taught them that outward  
appearances, if superior, can definitely give them more opportunities  
and glory.


Lin and her parents received so many interview requests from the media  
that the little girl had to suggest to her mother that she turn off  
her cell phone and tell the media it's out of battery power.


Lin told the media, Uncle Zhang (the Olympic opening director) said  
my voice is splendid. According to the Wuhan Evening News, Lin's new  
job was to perform for three minutes in a movie, for which she  
reportedly got paid 600,000 RMB (about 90,000 USD).


Before the Olympics show, Lin had shot dozens of TV ads and performed  
in many shows. Her journalist father and celebrity grandfather are  
believed to have worked hard to promote Lin in the entertainment  
industry.


Family backgrounds are investigated as a tangible clue for Lin and  
some other kids who won in the nationwide competition to perform at  
the opening ceremony.


Muzi Li, the little girl sitting beside pianist Lang Lang while he was  
playing in the opening, is also at the center of a controversy. She  
was found to have a real estate magnate mother, who's from a high  
level Chinese government leader's family. Li's mother went to Harvard  
University. Rumors circulating on the Internet say she is married to  
the son of Qinghong Zen, the mysteriously low-profile former Chinese  
Vice President.


Ironically, an online post on Wenxuecity by Registration Info 123  
points out, All the faults belong to Peiyi Yang. She stirred up the  
conflicts. Why wasn't she

Justice Department eyes domestic spy role for local police
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/presidentbush/2008/08/terrorism-spyin.html


Bush administration proposes new role for local police in helping FBI

The proposed rule change was first set out for public comment on July
31, and drew little attention:

As law enforcement agencies, including local and state units, watch
for signs of terrorist activity, they could target groups as well as
individuals, and begin criminal intelligence investigations based on
the suspicion that a target is engaged in terrorism or providing
material support to terrorists. And they could spread around the law
enforcement world the fruits of the investigation.

In short, it would move local police forces into the realm of
intelligence-gathering that had been the work of the FBI and other
federal agencies.

The proposed shift was noticed by the Washington Post, which reported
Saturday that the Justice Department's proposal would make it easier
for state and local police to collect intelligence about Americans,
share the sensitive data with federal agencies and retain it for at
least 10 years.

The newspaper noted that the administration was in the process of
revising domestic intelligence-gathering in its waning months in
office, and would lock in policies for President Bush's successor,
completing the greatest expansion of executive branch authority since
the Watergate era.

Jim McMahon, deputy executive director of the International Assn. of
Chiefs of Police, was quoted by the Post as saying the changes would
catch up with reality, updating rules from the early 1990s to the
post-9/11 world.

He said police agencies would still have to demonstrate a reasonable
suspicion that a target was involved in a crime before collecting
intelligence, the paper said.

But, it noted, Michael German, policy counsel for the American Civil
Liberties Union and a 16-year veteran of the FBI, said police
agencies could misunderstand it as allowing them to collect
intelligence even when no underlying crime is suspected.

He cited as an example an investigation into a charitable donation to
a group later designated as a terrorist organization.

It risks turning police officers into spies on behalf of the federal
government, he said.

Everyone knows that personal bankruptcies

But what almost no one knows is the primary

Is it wasteful spending?

Is it living beyond one's means?

No, it's something that may shock you.

And once you learn the answer, you're going to
be amazed that this simple statistic is, for

Subject: Les Miserables in the Age of the War on Terror

The entire operation --involving dozens of officers, police cars,  
vans, and scientific support agents -- was triggered by the presence  
on my University office computer of a document entitled the al-Qaida  
Training Manual, a declassified open-source document that had been  
sent to me months before.  A political science student of mine (who  
was also arrested), had downloaded it from the US Department of  
Justice website while doing research on terrorism for his poli sci  
PhD.   That document, which is included on the University's political  
science department reading list, is available on Amazon.




Britain's terror laws have left me and my family shattered

I am innocent yet was detained without charge in solitary confinement  
for days on end. It was a devastating experience


Hicham Yezza
The Guardian, August 18 2008
http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2008/aug/18/terrorism.civilliberties
The UN's committee on human rights has just published a report  
criticising Britain's anti-terror laws and the resulting curbs on  
civil liberties. For many commentators the issues raised are mostly a  
matter of academic abstractions and speculative meanderings. For me,  
it is anything but. These laws have destroyed my life.


On May 14 I was arrested under section 41 of the Terrorism Act - on  
suspicion of the instigation, preparation and commission of acts of  
terrorism: an absurdly nebulous formulation that told me nothing  
about the sin I had apparently committed. Once in custody, almost 48  
hours passed before it was confirmed that the entire operation  
(involving dozens of officers, police cars, vans, and scientific  
support agents) was triggered by the presence on my University of  
Nottingham office computer of an equally absurd document called the  
al-Qaida Training Manual, a declassified open-source document that I  
had never read and had completely forgotten about since it had been  
sent to me months before.


Rizwaan Sabir, a politics student friend of mine (who was also  
arrested), had downloaded the file from the US justice department  
website while conducting research on terrorism for his upcoming PhD.  
An extended version of the same document (which figures on the  
politics department's official reading list) was also available on  
Amazon. I edit a political magazine; Rizwaan regularly sent me copies  
of research materials he was using, and this document was one.


Within hours of my incarceration I had lost track of time. I often  
awoke thinking I had been asleep for days only to discover it wasn't  
midnight yet. My confidence in the competence (and motives) of the  
police ebbed away. I found myself shifting my energies from remaining  
cheerful to remaining sane. In the early hours, I was often startled  
by the metallic toilet seat, crouched in the corner like some sinister  
beast.


For days on end, I drew cartoons and wrote diary entries in the  
margins of Mills and Boon novellas. I spent hours reciting things to  
myself: names of Saul Bellow characters, physics Nobel prize winners,  
John Coltrane albums, anything to keep the numbness away.


I'm constantly coming across efforts being made to give detention  
without charge the Walt Disney treatment: the crushing weight of  
solitary confinement is painted as a non-issue; the soul-sapping  
nothingness of the claustrophobic, cold cell is portrayed as a mild  
inconvenience. Make no mistake: the feeling that one's fate is in the  
hands of the very people who are apparently trying to convict you is,  
without doubt, one of the most devastating horrors a human being can  
ever be subjected to. It is (to misquote Carl von Clausewitz) the  
continuation of torture by other means.


Those who have nothing to hide, have nothing to fear, goes the  
tautological reasoning of the paranoia merchants calling for harsher,  
ever more draconian security measures - as we saw throughout the 42- 
days debate. They should read Kafka: nothing is more terrifying than  
being arrested for something you know you haven't done. Indeed, it is  
the innocent who suffers the most because it is the innocent who is  
tormented the most. The guilty calculates, triangulates, anticipates.  
The innocent doesn't know where to start. The answers and the  
questions are absolute, unbreachable, towering conundrums.


I underwent 20 hours of vigorous interrogation while entire days were  
being completely wasted by the police micro-examining every detail of  
my life: my political activism, my writings, my work in theatre and  
dance, my love life, my photography, my cartooning, my magazine  
subscriptions, my bus tickets.


Aspects of my life that would have been seen as commendable in others

Most working families today do not have homes that have anywhere near  
ten rooms. John McCain has ten houses. Many working people in America  
have to work two and three jobs to provide for their families and pay  
their car loans. John McCain hops on a private jet. Is it any wonder  
why McCain champions a George Bush agenda of cutting taxes for  
corporations and the wealthy, helping oil companies turn record  
profits, and leaving working families to fend for themselves? McCain's  
velvet world leaves him utterly unprepared to make the tough choices  
we need to restore the middle class and ensure that everyone in  
America has quality, affordable health insurance.

- Andy Stern, President, Service Employees International Union (SEIU)
Dear chris,
John McCain is soaring to new heights of hypocrisy on his wife's  
personal jet. He flies around the country bent on duping the public  
into believing he's one of them, a regular guy who can empathize  
with Americans facing an overwhelming economic crush. What's more, he  
disparages those who oppose his ridiculous policy proposals as  
elitist. But who's the real elitist?
The REAL McCain is a multimillionaire who owns ten luxurious homes.  
The REAL McCain backs President Bush's tax cuts for big corporations.  
The REAL McCain empathizes only with the interests of our nation's  
wealthy minority, not its money-strapped majority. But far too many  
are buying into McCain's deceit because the corporate press won't  
present the whole picture, so we created this video to educate the  
public about the REAL McCain.

Watch the video and send it to everyone you know.
Together, you have been a force in making sure The REAL McCain videos  
have been seen by nearly 6.5 million people. But as Frank Rich noted  
in his NY Times column yesterday, 40% of Americans hear too little  
about McCain from the mainstream media, meaning the public doesn't  
know who on earth John McCain is. That's why it's crucial you ensure  
this video is seen by as many as possible, and that we use each and  
every tool at our disposal to get the word out. Send this on to five  
friends and family members, and tell them to send it to five people  
they know. Get it to your local news outlets and blogs and networking  
sites like Digg. Raise hell about McCain's economic duplicity!
AFL-CIO President John Sweeney summed it up best when he said McCain  
simply doesn't understand the challenges America's working families  
are facing because he isn't remotely affected by them. It's up to us  
to tell people who McCain really is, a jet-setting elitist more  
concerned with corporate lobbyists than hard-working Americans.

August 18, 2008 -- NSA continues surveillance of journalists; WMR  
editor subject of espionage investigation

On May 10, 2005, WMR reported on the existence of a highly-classified  
database at the National Security Agency (NSA), formerly code-named  
FIRSTFRUITS, that monitored journalists who reported on the  
activities of the eavesdropping agency, as well as other intelligence  
matters. A few weeks later, according to an executive-level source at  
the NSA, and confirmed by a related source within NSA's Q  
Directorate, the Directorate for Security and Counterintelligence,  
this editor has been a subject of a national security investigation  
since June 2005 that remains ongoing. The investigation of this editor  
is classified at the level SECRET/COMINT (NOFORN). COMINT is  
Communications Intelligence and NOFORN denotes Not Releasable to  
Foreign Nationals/Governments/Non-US Citizens.

According to National Security Agency/Central Security Service Policy  
1-27, dated March 20, 2006 and signed by NSA Chief of Staff Deborah  
Bonanni, the investigation of the public disclosure of the  
unconstitutional and illegal FIRSTFRUITS surveillance system would be  
coordinated by the NSA, Department of Defense, Director of National  
Intelligence, and the Department of Justice.

The following are excerpts from the editor's article that triggered  
the national security criminal investigation: NSA maintains a  
database that tracks unofficial and negative articles written about  
the agency. Code named 'FIRSTFRUITS,' the database is operated by the  
Denial and Deception (DD) unit within SID [Signals Intelligence  
Division]. High priority is given to articles written as a result of  
possible leaks from cleared personnel.

According to those familiar with FIRSTFRUITS, Bill Gertz of The  
Washington Times features prominently in the database. Before [NSA  
Director Michael] Hayden's reign and during the Clinton  
administration, Gertz was often leaked classified documents by anti- 
Clinton intelligence officials in an attempt to demonstrate that  
collusion between the administration and China was hurting U.S.  
national security. NSA, perhaps legitimately, was concerned that China  
could actually benefit from such disclosures.

In order that the database did not violate United States Signals  
Intelligence Directive (USSID) 18, which specifies that the names of  
'U.S. persons' are to be deleted through a process known as  
minimization, the names of subject journalists were blanked out.  
However, in a violation of USSID 18, certain high level users could  
unlock the database field through a super-user status and view the  
'phantom names' of the journalists in question. Some of the 'source'  
information in FIRSTFRUITS was classified—an indication that some of  
the articles in the database were not obtained through open source  
means. In fact, NSA insiders report that the communications monitoring  
tasking system known as ECHELON is being used more frequently for  
purely political eavesdropping having nothing to do with national  
security or counter terrorism.

In addition, outside agencies and a 'second party,' Great Britain's  
Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), are permitted to access  
the journalist database. FIRSTFRUITS was originally developed by the  
CIA but given to NSA to operate with CIA funding. The database soon  
grew to capacity, was converted from a Lotus Notes to an Oracle  
system, and NSA took over complete ownership of the system from the CIA.

Tens of thousands of articles are found in FIRSTFRUITS and part of the  
upkeep of the system has been outsourced to outside contractors, such  
as Booz Allen, which periodically hosts inter-agency Foreign Denial  
and Deception meetings within its Sensitive Compartmented Information  
Facility or 'SCIF' in Tyson's Corner, Virginia. Currently, in addition  
to NSA and GCHQ, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA),  
the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), and National Reconnaissance  
Office (NRO) routinely access the database, which is, in essence, a  
classified and more powerful version of the commercial NEXIS news  
search database.

In addition to Gertz, other journalists who feature prominently in the  
database include Seymour Hersh of The New Yorker; author and  
journalist James Bamford, James Risen of The New York Times, Vernon  
Loeb of The Washington Post, John C. K. Daly of UPI, and this  
journalist [Wayne Madsen].

Since the disclosure of FIRSTFRUITS, NSA changed the cover name but  
the system remains in existence. Not only does the follow-on to FIRST  
FRUITS contain articles about NSA written by journalists, it has been  
expanded to include information gleaned from wiretaps

August 14, 2008 -- Gates slashing rival chain-of-command elements in  
Air Force

The Air Force suspended its Cyber Command in an order issued on August  
11. The decision came prior to General Norton Schwartz assuming the  
Air Force Chief of Staff position. The shakeup in the Air Force  
follows the discovery of a rival chain-of-command operating within the  
Defense Department, particularly through the Air Force, that took  
orders directly from Vice President Dick Cheney's office. WMR reported  
on this rival chain in a series of exclusive reports.

The decision to suspend the Air Force Cyber Command deals a blow to  
the interests of key members of the rival chain, including the  
commander of the 8th Air Force in Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana.  
Barksdale was strongly hinted as the permanent home for the Cyber  
Command by the previous Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne. Wynne and  
Air Force Chief of Staff General Michael Moseley were fired by Defense  
Secretary Robert Gates in an attempt to eliminate the rival chain,  
which was responsible for a series of unauthorized operations  
involving nuclear weapons, including the movement of six nuclear-armed  
cruise missiles on a B-52 from Minot Air Force Base to Barksdale last  
August. Other Air Force nuclear incidents involved the movement of  
Minuteman III nose cone fuses to Taiwan, the possible loss of over  
1000 other nuclear components, the falling asleep of three Minuteman  
III Minot missile officers with nuclear firing codes, the recent truck  
accident involving a Minuteman III in North Dakota, Minot's flunking  
of its nuclear surety inspection in May, and the virtually unreported  
incident at Minot involving the theft of military equipment by nuclear  
security personnel last year and an Air Force gag order on the  
incident.

The decision to suspend the Cyber Command is being blamed on inter- 
service rivalry between Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Admiral Michael  
Mullen and the Air Force, with Mullen favoring the Navy's own cyber- 
warfare program over that of the Air Force. The rivalry argument is an  
attempt to divert attention away from the serious problems involving  
the command and control of nuclear weapons. And the Navy is not immune  
to the nuclear command problems. Yesterday, the Commander of Navy  
Strategic Communications Wing One at Tinker Air Force Base in  
Oklahoma, relieved Commander Shawn Bentley of his command over the  
VQ-3 Boeing E6-B Mercury Ironman squadron. The squadron provides  
airborne communications between the White House National Command  
Authority and U.S. nuclear ballistic missile submarine -- what is  
known as the Take Charge and Move Out (TACAMO) mission to communicate  
nuclear launch codes from the president to deployed nuclear missile  
submarines on patrol around the world. Bentley had only been on the  
job for three months when he was fired.

On April 25, 2008, WMR reported on key members of the rival Air Force  
chain: Vice President Dick Cheney's Chief of Staff, David Addington,  
remains in office. Air Force Secretary Wynne and Air Force Chief of  
Staff Gen. Moseley were fired by Gates on the same day. Brigadier Gen.  
Lawrence Stuztriem, Chief of Staff of the Air Force Strategic Studies  
Group - CHECKMATE, was promoted last month to Major General.

Lt. Gen. Robert Elder, Commander 8th Air Force, Barksdale Air Force  
Base, has lost his much-sought-after Cyber Command component. Col.  
Bruce Emig, Commander 5th Bomb Wing, Minot Air Force Base was relieved  
of command after last year's cruise missile nuclear incident, and   
Maj. Gen. Stephen Goldfein, one-time Commander Air Warfare Center,  
Nellis Air Force Base and now Vice Director of the Joint Staff at the  
Pentagon, has, according to senior Air Force sources, been cooperating  
in an investigation of Moseley. Moseley's one time executive officer,  
Brigadier Gen. Thomas Tinsley, reportedly died last month from a self- 
inflicted gun shot wound while serving as Commander of the 3rd Wing  
at Elmendorf Air Force Base in Alaska. Emig's replacement as 5th Bomb  
Wing Commander at Minot, Col. Joel Westa, remains in command following  
the failure of the base's nuclear surety inspection. When he fired  
Wynne and Moseley, Gates stated that other Air Force officials could  
follow them in being sacked.

Dr. Lani Kass, ex-Israeli Air Force officer, Cyber Warfare Task Force  
Director, U.S. Air Force/Project CHECKMATE until May of last year, has  
served as a Special Assistant to the Air Force Chief of Staff and is  
currently listed in that position under the new Chief of Staff General  
Schwartz.

August 13, 2008 -- Manipulating the progressive media and diverting  
the news

This editor is participating in a national and international effort to  
stymie the plan by Democratic multi-billionaire financier and hedge  
fund manipulator George Soros to influence a Barack Obama  
administration's foreign and domestic policies. The effort will focus  
on educating the new Democratic congressional class as well as the  
news media on the history of Soros and his activities in fomenting  
crises, through themed revolutions, in Eastern Europe and the  
nations of the former Soviet Union, attacking currencies and national  
economies, and engaging in predatory corporate practices that have  
resulted in the loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs in the United  
States.

The initiative against Soros and his loyalists, who include retired  
General Wesley Clark, former US ambassador to the UN Richard  
Holbrooke, Carter National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski, is in  
the initial stages and more information will be forthcoming as the  
project progresses. Soros has made common cause with the neocons in  
attacking Russia's Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and Iranian President  
Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, accusing them of being in nuclear league with one  
another. Soros is old neocon wine in a neo-liberal bottle.

Needless to say, Soros is not someone who should be a spokesperson,  
let alone a funder, of what is supposed to be a pro-labor and social  
rights political party, the Democratic Party. Soros began his sordid  
career in hedge funds (a combination of a betting parlor and a Ponzi  
scheme contrivance) in the late 1960s under Georges Coulon Karlweis,  
the vice chairman of Banque Privee Edmond Rothschild in Geneva,  
Switzerland. In the late 1960s, Karlweis provided Rothschild funds to  
Soros' Quota and Quantum hedge funds. Karlweis was the grand master of  
global financial chicanery and shysterism, having been linked to  
schemes of Bernard Cornfeld's International Overseas Services (IOS),  
the firm that Robert Vesco looted before he went into fugitive status.  
Karlweis also had his fingerprints on the antics of Michael Milken,  
Drexel Burnham Lambert's junk bond racketeer.

Soros has set himself up as a deep-pocketed prophet for liberal  
causes, yet he has diminished true progressives by spreading his ill- 
gotten profits through various front organizations. The main reason  
why former Democratic presidential candidate Mike Gravel was ridiculed  
and marginalized by such operations as DailyKos,  
DemocraticUnderground, Move.On, and America Coming Together was that  
Gravel was the first to take on The Carlyle Group and its Democratic  
neo-con managing director David Rubinstein over the firm's attempt to  
hoodwink Alaska Native tribes over their assets. It turns out that  
none other than Soros is a major investor in the Carlyle Group. Soros  
was also an investor in George W. Bush's Harken Energy after it  
required a financial bail out. At last January's World Economic Forum  
in Davis, Switzerland, a conclave of the mighty and powerful that  
should be rounded up and trucked off to extraordinary rendition  
prisons, Soros was present with Carlyle's Rubinstein. To round off the  
attendee list of perpetrators of economic crimes against the peoples  
of the world was hedge fund Blackstone Group CEO Stephen Schwarzman.  
Blackstone's former director was Lord Jacob Rothschild, Soros' old pal  
and financial colleague. These capitalist vultures have been picking  
up foreclosed homes at bargain basement prices from hard-working  
American families impoverished by such global shylocks due to the  
collapse of the U.S. dollar and the U.S. housing market.

Soros, through his bought-and-paid-for progressive media entities  
has managed to stifle any news that casts light on his own anti- 
democratic and anti-progressive activities in the United States and  
around the world. It has also come to light that Soros and his minions  
have targeted this editor for retaliation for the past four years.  
 From covering the 2004 election fraud in states like Ohio that  
involved Eastern European and Russian programmers in the employment of  
GOP operatives, to the Pamela Martin  Associates escort scandal  
involving top administration officials, to the activities of Russian- 
Israeli racketeers and gangsters like Boris Berezovsky, Leonid  
Nevzlin, and other colleagues of Soros, and the shooting of retired  
CIA agent Roland Carnaby in Houston, the Soros crowd not been happy.  
There is also ample reason to believe that this editor's phone call  
records and emails have been rifled through in order to obtain sources  
and funders. Note: it should be noted that the WMR site is very secure

August 14, 2008 -- Was Karl Rove working with George Soros to  
destabilize Caucasus?

The world of George W. Bush's alternatively described brain and  
turd blossom Karl Rove is one of backstage deals to destabilize  
situations for maximum political gain. Progressive financier George  
Soros acts in much the same way in ensuring maximum profits from a  
program of what Naomi Klein calls disaster capitalism.

Last month, the worlds of Rove and Soros met in the Ukrainian Black  
Sea city of Yalta, suspiciously, a few weeks before the Republic of  
Georgia and its neocon- and Soros-backed president, Mikheil  
Saakashvili, launched a night time blitzkrieg attack against South  
Ossetia and its Russian peacekeepers while unwitting South Ossetians  
and their Russian protectors were watching the opening ceremony of the  
Summer Olympics in Beijing.

Rather then appear, pursuant to a subpoena, before the House Judiciary  
Committee hearing on his role in Justice Department prosecutions,  
including that of Alabama Democratic Governor Don Siegelman, Rove was  
winging off to Yalta to speak at a conference sponsored by the YES  
Foundation of Ukrainian billionaire steel tycoon Victor Pinchuk,  
considered one of the wealthiest of the Jewish Russian and Ukrainian  
oligarchs who amassed their fortunes after the collapse of the Soviet  
Union. Past participants in annual Yalta conferences have included  
Ukrainian neocon President Victor Yushchenko, who came to the aid of  
Saakashvili with military and political support after Georgia's attack  
on South Ossetia; International Monetary Fund President Dominique  
Strauss-Kahn; and, more interestingly, Georgia's Saakashvili.

The presence of Rove and Saakashvili in Yalta at a conference  
sponsored by a billionaire pal of George Soros, have many observers  
suggesting that Rove helped engineer, along with Soros, the Georgian  
attack on South Ossetia as a way to prop up the sagging political  
fortunes of GOP presidential candidate John McCain. More interesting  
is the fact that McCain's top foreign policy adviser, Randy  
Scheunemann, is a lobbyist for Georgia who has received hundreds of  
thousands in fees from Saakashvili's government and has lobbied McCain  
on 49 occasions over an almost four year period on behalf of his  
Georgian client.

Pinchuk's YES Foundation and Pinchuk Foundation have worked with Soros  
to establish legal clinics in many eastern European nations that  
have experienced Soros-initiated themed revolutions, including those  
in Ukraine, Moldova, and Belarus (the last two having been  
unsuccessful). Pinchuk is the only Ukrainian member of the Council on  
Foreign Relations and the International Crisis Group. The latter  
includes such anti-Vladimir Putin ideologues as Soros; Ken Adelman;  
Zbigniew Brzezinski, a top foreign policy adviser to Barack Obama; and  
imprisoned former Yukos boss and  Putin opponent Mikhail Khodorkovsky.  
Pinchuk's Interpipe company is also the only eastern European company  
on Richard Holbrooke's Global Business Coalition Against HIV/AIDS.  
Holbrooke was one the Democratic Party stalwarts who advocated taking  
a tough stand against Russia in its confrontation with Georgia.  
Pinchuk also supports local Jewish communities in eastern Europe and  
the Caucasus, including Ukraine and Georgia. Pinchuk and Soros also  
attended last January's World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland,  
where Soros spoke on a panel sponsored by Pinchuk.

August 15-17, 2008 -- Intercepts reveal Georgian sneak attack on South  
Ossetia

United States and British signals intelligence (SIGINT) intercepts of  
Caucasus region communications, including the cell phone calls of  
Georgian, South Ossetian, and Russian government and military  
officials, reveal that Georgia was involved in a sneak attack on the  
evening of August 8 against South Ossetia and its Russian  
peacekeepers, WMR has learned from American intelligence sources.

The National Security Agency (NSA) maintained a series of SIGINT  
intercept stations in Georgia that were directed at Russian  
communications. In addition, Georgian communications, including  
satellite communications, were under surveillance from the NSA SIGINT  
station at Menwith Hill in England, as well as Britain's Government  
Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) in Cheltenham, also in England.

The SIGINT take from the Georgian assault on South Ossetia does not  
square with media reports of Russian aggression against Georgia.  
Once again, a split has developed between seasoned U.S. intelligence  
professionals and Bush administration officials who are offering up  
propaganda suited to the purposes of the neocon Mikheil Saakashvili  
regime in Tbilisi. A similar split occurred prior, during, and after  
the U.S. invasion of Iraq when the intelligence did not square with  
the propaganda emanating from the Bush White House. In recent years,  
such a gulf between intelligence reality and White House policy has  
also developed with regard to Iran's nuclear program.

Ironically, as the Bush administration seeks to restore the days of  
the Cold War, Russia has a number of U.S. intelligence professionals  
agreeing with its stance and statements on South Ossetia.
